I was cruisin' through the machv forum and stumbled upon this:

I'm not the greatest at putting up links. I hope that it worked. It is freakin' hilarious

I'm not sure what the problem is. I read the whole Mustang vs. DSM post. The Mustang and DSM guys both seemed to be getting along pretty well for the most part and agreeing on most of the points made by both sides.

While I'm usually not one to keep an argument going, lets not forget that 5.0's and early 4.6's came with 225-235 HP from the factory that's only 15-35 more HP than stock DSM's depending on the year. I would have to say, stock-to-stock (even w/o free mods), that in a street race from a stop AWD is more than enough to make up that 15-35 HP. Even a skilled RWD driver has a hard time getting traction on the street with stock tires. On a clean concrete surface it might be a different story, but on your usual run of the mill street AWD will have a distinct traction advantage stock-to-stock. That being said, I have never seen a stock AWD DSM race a stock 5.0 so all of this is just based on what I think, not what I know for sure to be true. It would be interesting to see who would come out on top. I think we'd have a hard time finding a stock 5-speed 5.0 and a stock 5-speed AWD DSM though. :wink:
